<HTML>There are probably not too many showing flyingboats attacking submarines.
Most a/c attacked alone and in most cased you will only see the target as attacker by the aircraft.Try John Evans at Pembroke Dock -he may be ablae to help you out as regards aircaft from Wales.
I did quite a bit on Flying Boats based from Ireland and the photographs I came across were as described.
Some recent books by Norman Franks. \"Deep Water Blue Sky\" , \"Aircraft vs Submarines\" \"Search , Find and Kill\" all by Grub Street are excellent.(See Bok section of this site). Bowyers \"Short Sunderland\" would be a good start.
Nothing of te Welsh Coast unfortunately.
It would have been one hell of a hot spot for a U-Boat to have been in.
